ABOUT THE FILM:
From acclaimed San Francisco filmmaker Jenni Olson, The Royal Road is a compelling feature-length cinematic essay set against a contemplative backdrop of 16mm urban California landscapes. Visually stunning and intellectually stirring, The Royal Road offers up a primer on the Spanish colonization of California and the Mexican American War alongside intimate reflections on nostalgia, butch identity, the quest for unattainable women, and Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo. Featuring a voiceover cameo by Tony Kushner.
